Ferne cotton - I'm sorry but she's awful.

Anyone else you can't stand ?

Vernon Kay, Nicky Campbell and Zoe Ball.

Sarah Cox is getting worse as well. Repeats the same jokes like saying "Ma Wife" over and over again. She was awful on the all request show yesterday.

RenoDakota · 05/08/2023 00:39

Liza Tarbuck. I think she actually believes she is Dawn French.

elsiesbonnet · 05/08/2023 00:43

I love Sara Cox, Zoe Ball is pretty good too.. for worst I'd say Jeremy Vine but I think that's mostly because I can't stand phone-ins and that's the basis of his show.

24HourNappyPeople · 05/08/2023 00:49

Jo Whiley

Jo Whiley

😱

Nooooo

Anyone who used to be on tv/ in a band are generally awful

Amol Rajan - he doesn’t just speak badly, he swallows words and is very hard to understand (especially if you are only half awake!)

Sushilover14 · 05/08/2023 01:02

Sara cox, Zoe ball, vernon Kay, ferne cotton 😬

Women's hour's Emma Barnett, who's father ran brothels in Manchester and trafficked women. She was found to have emails referring to his "whores" but didn't bother going to the police to actually help them.

Lorraine Kelly, it's either the oooh aye ooooh sympathy face or that insane girly giggle...😤

Agreed!!

autienotnaughti · 05/08/2023 05:14

Chris Ramsey is quite stiff on children in need. Although fine when he presents with his wife.

Cozytoesandtoast00 · 05/08/2023 05:31

I think you're all horribly jealous.
What a nasty thread.

LindorDoubleChoc · 05/08/2023 05:44

I'm unable to listen to more than 5 minutes of Gaby Roslin covering for Zoe Ball at the moment.

Tried, tried, tried and utterly failed to be able to bear Scott Mills.

OnlyFoolsnMothers · 05/08/2023 05:45

Mark Wright

Meadowfly · 05/08/2023 05:48

Everyone currently on radio 2 😥. I still miss Simon mayo and Ken Bruce. Steve Wright was the worst though.
Amol R is great - his diction is a bit of a shock compared to the rest of the today presenters but I’ve got used to it and like him now.

Mydogisagentleman · 05/08/2023 05:52

Lisa Tarbuck, although I managed to find someone worse in an attempt to find an alternative to her while driving my car on a Saturday evening.
I can't remember his name (helpful) but he's on radio Norfolk and could easily replace Alan Partridge

Yirk · 05/08/2023 06:07

It's between Richie Anderson and Rob Beckett, have to admit there are a lot of terrible presenters at the minute,
I do like Gary Davis. Jo Whiley and good old Johnnie Walker.

Poppyblush · 05/08/2023 06:35

Gary linekar and anyone else on bbc

DavesSpareDeckChair · 05/08/2023 07:01

Can't believe nobody has said Chris Moyles yet!

billysboy · 05/08/2023 07:04

Richie Anderson and steve Wright

GonnaGetGoingReturns · 05/08/2023 07:04

Miquita Oliver. I can’t stand her. So screechy and loves herself. They had a replacement on Sunday Brunch last week as presumably Miquita was on holiday and she was so much better.

Holly Willoughby grinds my gears too.

Richard Osman, I should like him but whenever House of Games comes on I want to scratch my eyes out and so switch over.

Spanielsarepainless · 05/08/2023 07:05

Chris Packham by miles.
